I am playing one person who stopped moving in games he is losing. He admitted later that he is trying to move his rating up as high as possible.

This is an example of how these vacations can be abused. In my opinion there are too many as it is.

no Harley, they are hurting me and others

I know this, but setting a vacation is at least doing things properly and obviously.
Why should I wait 30 days on a 2 day game, just cos someone hasnt come back for a while? I still say, cos its an emergency thing, there should be a limit of 2 auto extensions at most.

22. Oktober 2004, 19:46:03

Exactly, so they will run out of vacatin days, and they are only hurting themselves really. if they use all their days as emergency auto-vacations, they won't have any left if they actually want to go away for a few days!

22. Oktober 2004, 19:43:22

But Stevie - if they did not have the auto vacation set up, they could as easly set the days manually.

It's not like the system adds more vacation days, just uses the ones currently given to all users.

22. Oktober 2004, 19:41:09
Stevie 
To avoid these players means you lose out though. You have to pick and choose tournies etc.
I say again...WHAT IS THE USE OF A GAME TIME LIMIT NOW????????
If it is set to auto, then they will just move when they feel like it, not within times. Its just another nail if you ask me

I think BBW's example was an extreme circumstance, but it gives the idea of the kind of thing that can happen. Life happens, you might be called away for a couple of days to help with an ill friend or relative. You might have computer problems. Anything may happen. I know of more than a few occasions where people have asked Fencer to add vacation days on somebody's behalf because they are unable to get to the PC. I have asked Fencer to this and I know I'm not the only one. As BBW says, ANY system is open for abuse, and all you can do is avoid these players.

22. Oktober 2004, 19:21:19
Stevie 
I mean in those circumstances, who cares if games time out??
Its bad enough waiting for the likes of yourself and kevin amoungst many, who wait till last day to move...just because you can...just for the auto thing to act also. What is tghe use for having game time limits now??? what a crock

22. Oktober 2004, 18:31:05
coan.net 
exactly Stevie - and with auto vacations set, it will be a welcome result once things do settle down that when they get back on-line, their games will still be here waiting for them.

Emne: Re: Never die
mclaudio, sorry what u r going through with Klokan. I have been saying for over 2 months that this person has been tring to win games by upsetting people so they will resign their games with them. In AMENTTY board we have a boat tourney that has been going for some time. And this person is the only 1 left to play any of the games. But said my peace about them again so off to my corner I go. TYVM for ur time every1.
:o{P

But then in those circumnstances I would say "to hell with the internet..family is important"

I like the idea of auto vacations since they can be great when emergencies arrise. Brothers in the hostpital, wife goes into labor, house burns down and takes computer with it, etc.... When things like this comes up, it is nice to not have to think "oh no, I beter got to an internet game site and set vacations".

Of course some users will abuse it, but people also abused the last way also - so I like this new feature.

22. Oktober 2004, 17:34:28
grenv 
This auto vacation is a little silly. What are we protecting people from? This is a game site not internet banking. I think it's more important that games be completed than people are saved from timing out. If you can't keep up play fewer games or set up a deliverate vacation.

just my 2c

22. Oktober 2004, 17:18:21
Antje 
i, too, have a bunch of games with Klokan and he hasnt timed out.. thats his perogative to use the amount of time alotted. :o)

22. Oktober 2004, 17:13:05

there are many tournaments for pawns to enter.. but thanks for answering for mclaudio :)

22. Oktober 2004, 17:12:16

anyone interested in playing Jungle or Nackgammon or Battleboats Plus in the team tournaments.. The Sunshine Club is looking for some players for those teams.. come and sign up!!

22. Oktober 2004, 17:03:59
Antje 
which tournament is that mclaudio?

22. Oktober 2004, 15:58:16

Emne: Re: Never die
Because they probably have one of their vacation days added when a time-out is due. I don't think pawns have this feature.

22. Oktober 2004, 15:34:30

Emne: Never die
Any body can explain me why a player in a tournament who never play, the timer reset always and give him everyday one day more to play? Its happen with our tournament that never more finish because the last player never more play!!!!

Sometimes new members will not be able to figure how to sign up, due to the player/s explaining it to them can't type in a manner that is readable anyways LOL

Thats what typing has to do with it

I think your personal attacks need to be deleted. And this board is for PUBLIC reading. Just to clear that up.

21. Oktober 2004, 05:26:53

What does typing have to do with talking on a disscussion board about tournaments again this board is for fencers reading and you wasting his time.

Ask the new members there are some and alot more to come in my fellowships.

Excuse me? I read it all very carefully. Have to, the way some people type.. I honestly don't understand what is so difficult about the signing up process. Very simple and straightforward procedure.

21. Oktober 2004, 04:17:52

Go down and read before you talk then you will understand....

What is so difficult about signing up for a fellowship team??????? If you are on someone else's team, it clearly tells you which one you are on.
I don't understand what you are complaining about..

Emne: Kevins answer
Yes you are right Kevin,but does that explain why it can't be set that way for certain individuals that seem to have problems signing on a team,i've had unpresidented complaints about how to sign up for a fellowship team.I also understand that to modify that issue it would lock your fellowship into just that team. Any suggestions to providing a solution to the issue at hand.

Andersp, I read what you wrote and I didn't read it as complaining. Yes mine is earned. But the 2200 may be short lived...the dreaded losing streak may be coming my way!

20. Oktober 2004, 03:55:29
Kevin 
The "main team" can be a different team for each person - it does define the team that is shown when going to that fellowship page, but you setting it only changes it for you, and not for everyone else.

One player needed for espionage team tournament of fencers,i thought i had enough but now i find out you have to have a membership higher then a knight membership.I find that unfair to the paying knight members,when it states there allowed to join one tournament.:o( Anyone interested with higher then a knight membership can join at the Music Trivia and Knowledge fellowship,it's set as the main team for now so sign up should be easy for anyone.Thanks your friend Mike :o)

Emne: Re: Hey Andersp!!!
LOL AD..since i know your BKR isnt a "faked" one i will gladly say CONGRATS!. When i said "braggers" i was talking about all those who do anything (multipls IDs) for a high BKR. Thats why i think these + x000 tourneys are silly :)..my opinion.
I deleted my posts because "someone" accused me for complaining, i was just curious who kicked me out of the +2100 tourney, the creator or
"auto" and i got the answer:)
